What you have is simple. The vehicle's computer only allows the vehicle to reach up to 95mph. as a safety feature. If you're racing it, you will need to get ahold of an OBD 2 linkable program to change your maximum vehicle speed.

Hi, the CRV typically gets 9.5 litres per 100 Km, the gas tank on a CRV is 58L. You should be able to go about 610km on a single tank, but that is a FULL tank to EMPTY. I'd suggest filling up every 500-550km to be safe.

There is a speed/shift sensor you could change, but if you haven't changed the fuel filter in a while, i'd go there first. Sometimes, in fact, often, plugged fuel filters can cause the engine to starve for fuel, and make it seem like the transmission is the problem.

Do you remember by chance speed vs RPM before & after work done? for example : before was 2000 RPM @ 60 MPH. Now 2200 RPM @ 60MPH ? May be coincidence, and transmission not shifting to overdrive or high gear.

something wrong with ECU thats for sure but what???racking my brains here,something is not computing the fuel delivery thats for sure but what??why first three gears ok ??air flow meter is first to mind but i would be inclined to put two identical cars together and change parts over till fault found
